Project Database Error

We keep receiving Project Database errors and I am trying to track down the root cause.  The verbiage from the error report is below.  The project we are running this on was not started with our Revit Template so we are kind of guessing as to what it could be, but i suspect that maybe their Sheet Order Parameter.  It appears that the sheet order parameter listed in the error below is Text and not an Integer or Number.  Any help would be greatly appreciated so we can avoid this sort of thing going forward.

Export Error in Table: Sheets Element Info: Category: Sheets Name: SYMBOLS, ABBREVIATIONS, AND LOCATION MAP Id: 1133164 / An error occurred during export processing: ArgumentException: Input string was not in a correct format.Couldn't store <> in SheetOrder Column.  Expected type is Double.

The parameter is a sheet parameter named “SYMBOLS, ABBREVIATIONS, AND LOCATION MAP” which is inconsistent - A Number in the first model, but a Text in a later model.

Matt, thanks for the reply.  I didn't see a parameter called "SYMBOLS, ABBREVIATIONS, AND LOCATION MAP" (that is a sheet name however).  What i did find is that the Sheet Order parameter was indeed inconsistent.  In the first model that runs it is a Number, but in the 2nd and 3rd models that run it is Text.

Thank you for the info!  Much appreciated.  I should be able to correct it and get things moving.

Oh, I’m sorry, you’re right... “SheetOrder”
